This came in the mail. It was a surprise. I have already loaded 4 Ebooks from my local library, including The Haunting of Hill House and So Long, Been Dreaming for R.I.P. Plus, with Readability, I can send all those long articles I kept meaning to read online right to this little shiny and read them anywhere!
Congratulations and may you be very happy together. :-D
And happy birthday!
Thanks, Jill!
Happiest birthday to you, Gavin!
Thanks, Lu. I also got some real books!
Happy birthday and may you have many fun times with the kindle, I’m going out to buy the new kindle now! (seriously).
p/s: we are perhaps the few people who are late in adopting this technology.
I kept putting off getting an e-reader. Then I looked at one a friend owns and saw how convenient a Kindle could be, not that I’ll ever give up books. I didn’t want the Fire because I’m distracted by the internet enough as it is. At least I can walk away from my computer!
Aw yay! Happy birthday! And congratulations on having a new e-reader. I love my Nook tremendously; it has made my life on the subway infinity times better.
Thanks, Jens. I am loving my Kindle and am glad I just got the basic model.
Happy birthday, Gavin! I like the Shirley Jackson book you selected, too :-) very good for RIP! enjoy, and have fun with your new book toy :-)
Thanks, Susan. I am amazed at the Jackson book. I’d never read it, only seen the movie ages and ages ago (on TV, one of those “Million Dollar Movies”).
Well, I don’t think I need to wish you a happy birthday cause I know it is very happy since you got your Kindle!! Woo hoo! You will love it! And I will wish you a happy birthday anyway because I’m nice like that.
Thanks, Jenners. I am lovin’ my Kindle. I just have to keep myself from buying Ebooks!
Nice present! Happy belated birthday!
Thanks, Vasilly. I got a couple of great books as well as my Kindle so it was a great day.
Now that’s a great gift. I’ve been thinking about getting one of these reading toys, too.
Thanks for your comment. I waited a long time, Delia, but am glad I got this simple e-reader. I’m loving it.
Happy Birthday!! Kindles make fabulous gifts! I love mine and it’s probably one of the most used gifts I’ve ever received, besides my iPod.
Ti, I love my Kindle!
Happy Birthday! I love my kindle and the fact that not only can I download books from the library, but I can also share books with my daughter and my mother! Enjoy!
Thanks, Susan. I am figuring out how to share books with my friends.
